Aplikasi Pupuk Guano Dan Mycogrow Terhadap Pertumbuhan Dan Hasil Tanaman Cabai Paprika (Capsicum annum var. Grossum)

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of guano and mycogrow fertilizers on the growth and yield of paprika. The experiment was carried out on the land of the Aceh Agricultural Technology Research Center, Kuta Alam District, Banda Aceh. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with a 4 x 3 factorial pattern where guano fertilizer consisted of 4 treatment levels G₀=without guano fertilizer, G₁=30 g / polybags (4 tons / ha), G₂=60 g / polybags. (8 tons / ha), G₃=90 g / polybags (12 tons / ha) and mycogrow consists of 3 treatment levels M₀=without mycogrow fertilizer, M₁=7.5 g / polybags (1 ton / ha), M₂=15 g / polybags (2 tons / ha). Each treatment was repeated 3 times at the same time. The results showed that the application of guano fertilizer had a significant effect on the observed parameters, namely the number of fruits and fruit weight. The application of mycogrow fertilizer did not significantly affect all observed parameters, namely plant height, number of fruits, fruit weight, fruit diameter, fruit length and wet stool. The combination of these treatments shows that there is no real and very real interaction. All observations of chili peppers with the best fertilization doses were 8 tons / ha of guano and mycogrow fertilizers. The use of guano and mycogrow fertilizers can increase the yield of chili peppers.
